This was so freaking entertaining! I loved the tension between Alex and Theresa. Them coming together was a fun ride with a great build and a heck of a lot of heat.

This was a fast paced read that had a whole lot of outrageous scenarios, a great cast of characters, and it was super hot. Alex and Theresa's first meeting was pretty awkward, these two weren't off to a good start to say the least. I liked the animosity between them and the fun that created. As they get to know each other, the sexual tension ratchets up until it's off the charts. I love Alex fighting his feelings and the battle he was having. They both have some reasons for holding back that created some dilemmas for them but I loved the crazy ride of them coming together and working it out.

The writing was really good. There is a great pace and build happening. It's a light, witty read that was full of humor and low in the drama department with an awesome amount of heat and chemistry happening between Alex and Theresa. Lots of chaos and running around since their helping with a wedding but it's also sweet as we get to know the characters and see how wonderful and caring they are. I found them both to be really endearing. The story was so entertaining and had a lot of outlandish moments but this isn't my first rodeo with Thea de Salle so I knew what to expect. If anything, I felt it was tamer in the crazy department than the first two books (The King of Bourbon Street and The Queen of Dauphine Street) but it was just as enjoyable all the same.

I loved watching the characters figure out their issues while they were in the middle of crazy wedding antics and adventures. Extremely entertaining!

Rain and Sol from The King of Bourbon Street are getting married (oops spoilers), and everyone is flying in to be there for the special day, but a week before the wedding the wedding planner dies after leaking all the wedding information. So income Theresa, Rain's best friend, and Alex, Sol's brother, to save the day, and maybe develop some feelings along the way.

I'll be honest, this is my least favourite of the series so far. I wasn't drawn to either of the characters and I didn't find their relationship particularly compelling. It's not a bad book, but it's not as good as the previous two.

It felt so good to go back to a world I was familiar with. From the lush descriptions to the amusing banter between the MCs and the background characters who I am in love with. Everything about these books is comforting. Especially the amount of drama and miscommunication and how real these people feel to me. I adore Alex and his conflicted feelings about religion and Theresa were so on point for me, as a religious person. Theresa as well provided such an excellent example of a person of faith who was comfortable in her own beliefs and I adore every inch of her.

So I finished this book about a week ago, and I still can’t get over how perfect it is. I loved the first two books in the series and this one definitely didn’t disappoint. There’s a lot to love about these books but for me it’s really all about the characters, and these morons are some of my favourites.

First let’s talk about our main characters, Alex was such a fun character to read, especially after getting glimpses of him in the previous books. I loved learning more about him and I loved all the different dynamics he had with all the other characters, especially his brothers. The difference between him and Sol was hilarious and perfect, and I loved that you could still tell they cared about each other. I also just loved Theresa, her and Rain are total opposites but also total best friends and it was so nice to see their friendship. I also just loved her as a character, she’s sure of her self and willing to do whatever she needs to for the people she cares about and it’s just lovely! Also her and Alex? I’m sorry but yes, they are precious and wonderful and everything I wanted.

I also just love all the side characters in this series, the author could write a book about each and every one of them and I’d be so happy, there’s really no wrong choice. I think my new favourite is Nash, he’s hilarious and amazing and I love him. And getting to see the couples from the first two books was so nice! I love that we got more of them in this one even though it was definitely all about Alex and Theresa.

Another thing about this series that I always enjoy is the settings, I’ve never been to New Orleans but the way the city is described is just magical and I can picture it so vividly every time.

Overall I loved this book, I can’t choose a favourite from the series because they’re all so good, and if you liked the first two then I’d definitely recommend this one! Also if you’re looking for a good romance series then definitely check out the first book, even ignoring the genre they are some of the best books that I’ve ever read and I will always recommend them.

Again, not as fun as the first book, but still an incredibly entertaining read! It was nice to see Sol and Rain continue (and I have to say I love seeing them growing together), and I loved watching Alex battle with his religious conscience and recieve the BEST advice about love, relationships, and sex. All in all, I'm here for it and I could read a million more books based off of this group of characters.
